MARK 1:14, 15
14 ...Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
The time is fulfilled. That's what Jesus had to say about Old Testament prophecy. Notice He didn't say the prophecies would be delayed while He builds His Church and the Gentiles get saved. And He didn't say the prophecies would be postponed until a future millennium or immediately before. The Gospel, its message and all of its tenets are the fulfilment of Bible-prophecy.
Jesus Christ's program, in the time of the fulfilment of all things, was and is the Gospel. His program isn't to be some mixture of modern Judaism and the Gospel. Such a mixture has no place in the fulfilment of Bible-prophecy. God's only program now is the Gospel.
And what better program! The good news. All who believe in Jesus Christ are justified freely by the grace of God.
That's something to announce!
